RAYSTAT-EX-02

SURFACE SENSING MECHANICAL THERMOSTAT

This EEx d approved surface sensing thermostat provides

temperature control for all nVent RAYCHEM BTV, QTVR, KTV,
VPL and XTV heating cables in hazardous areas. The switching
temperature range is –4°C to +163°C and is adjustable externally
to the Ex enclosure by a dial mounted under a bolted-on cover
and seal.

Cable entry is through a single 3/4" NPT thread entry.

nVent RAYCHEM cable glands are available to suit non-armoured
and armoured cable.
The 3 m long stainless steel fluid filled bulb and capillary give
freedom to locate the enclosure remote from the bulb. The bulb
exposure range is –50°C to +215°C.
The cast aluminium construction with stainless steel fittings
gives a lightweight unit which can be pipe mounted using nVent
RAYCHEM support brackets or surface mounted.

Maximum recommended heating cable lengths (230 V supply)
The maximum recommended heating cable length is restricted by the electrical protection sizing or the switching capacity of the
RAYSTAT-EX-02.
For circuits and electrical protection rated up to and including 20 A
Use the maximum recommended heating cable lengths, mentioned in the cable datasheet.
For circuits and electrical protection rated above 20 A but less than or equal to 22 A
Use the shorter length of the values given in the cable datasheet and those given for your switching temperature in the
table below.
For circuits and electrical protection rated above 22 A, RAYSTAT-EX-02 must NOT be connected for direct switching.
